翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Higby Mountain ： ウィキペディア英語版 Higby Mountain Higby Mountain or Mount Higby , is a traprock mountain ridge located east of Meriden, Connecticut. It is part of the narrow, linear Metacomet Ridge that extends from Long Island Sound near New Haven, Connecticut, north through the Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts to the Vermont border. Higby Mountain is known for its high cliff faces, unique microclimate ecosystems, and rare plant communities. It rises steeply above the Quinnipiac River valley and the city of Meriden to the west as a continuous long ledge. The mountain is traversed by the Mattabesett Trail.〔Farnsworth, Elizabeth J. (2004). "(Metacomet-Mattabesett Trail Natural Resource Assessment. )" United States National Park Service. Retrieved November 20, 2007〕〔''Connecticut Walk Book East: The Trail Guide to the Blue Blazed Hiking Trails of Eastern Connecticut'' (2005) 19th edition. Rockfall, Connecticut: Connecticut Forest and Park Association.〕 ==Geography== Located within the towns of Middletown, Meriden, and Middlefield, Higby Mountain is long by wide at its widest point, although rugged topography makes the actual square mileage much larger. Higby Mountain is an important aquifer; two reservoirs and one pond lie at the base of it: ''Higby Mountain Reservoir'' at its east foot; ''Adder Reservoir,'' on the upper eastern slope; and ''Black Pond'' between Besek Mountain and Higby Mountain. The mountain forms a conspicuous, sharp long cliffline visible throughout the upper Quinnipiac River Valley and metropolitan Meriden. ''Camel's Hump'', est. , also called ''The Pinnacle'' is a prominent southern high point on the ridge just above a shallow gap called ''Preston Notch''. (''The Pinnacle'' should not be confused with a similarly named peak on Talcott Mountain, or with Pinnacle Rock of Farmington, Connecticut, both part of the Metacomet Ridge to the north of Higby Mountain). Interstate 91 cuts through the gap between Higby Mountain and Chauncey Peak to the north.〔''DeLorme Topo 6.0'' (2006). Mapping software. Yarmouth, Maine: DeLorme.〕 The Metacomet Ridge continues northwest from Higby Mountain as Chauncey Peak and south as Besek Mountain. A line of smaller hills extends from the Higby Mountain ridgeline north into Middletown; most notable of these is ''Fall Hill'' from which tumbles the high ''Westfield Falls,'' visible from Interstate 91 just north of Higby Mountain. The north and east sides of Higby Mountain drain into Fall Brook, then Sawmill Brook, then the Mattabesett River, thence to the Connecticut River and Long Island Sound. The west and south side drain into Harbor Brook thence into the Quinnipiac River and Long Island Sound.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Higby Mountain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
